If we add in sensors so we don't fall into holes, I believe we can build interesting mobile platforms.
I envision a "stack" of processors, each handling increasingly higher-level functions. I believe the sensing systems will be the hardest part to develop and implement.
So! On with the show!
Hi Brooks,
You might want to have two layers of sensor processors. The first is more reflexive and mainly does very little except gets the values of the sensors, checks to see if any are in the danger zone, and otherwise sends it to the next processor in the stack. The second layer does things like trying to make sense of the different sensors, combining them together.
Just a thought.
